Dems must reject the economic illiteracy of Trump's blanket tariffs that will drive prices up, investment down, growth down--pushing us towards stagflation. That doesn't mean embracing status quo policies that led to Trump. Gov't has to improve life for many struggling.

We can do it in a financially sound way. The way we reduce deficits is by taxing the wealthy more, cutting the bloated defense budget, cutting fossil fuel subsidies, & having Medicare negotiate against drug manufacturers to lower costs.

We also need new high paying jobs and economic growth. The times demand a Marshall plan for America's economic renewal. We can spur high paying job creation in every town & city that will lead to growth & increased tax revenue reducing deficit.

We cant simply go back to an America where we neglect inequality, or watch jobs being shipped offshore passively, or are resigned to wealth piling up in NY and SV while most Americans have no economic security.

Why would we want to go back to that --where people in too many communities do not have high paying jobs, young folks can't afford a house, many are struggling to pay medical debt or afford childcare?

We need a transformative vision so that ordinary Americans have a shot at success in the modern economy. That is what my economic patriotism is about. It is about finally getting economic security and independence for the majority of Americans.

Taxing the very rich & cutting defense contractors to pay for Medicare for All, universal education and $10 day childcare. And having the biggest high paying jobs development initiative this country has seen in decades. A pro growth, fiscally sound, progressive vision!

“This” being his third term.

I've been seeing news on Reddit and Twitter that deals (or at least no-retaliations) are being made with India, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe. However, in my regarded opinion, deals with any countries/blocs other than Canada, Mexico, China and the EU simply don't matter. Those four easily dwarf any other countries in terms of the amount of back and forth trade done with the US. Unless a deal is struck with those four, I think this market is going to continue to slide. Thoughts?
